DROID – “With the collapse of economic and cultural systems man was plunged into chaos. Forced to scavenge and forage on the very trash heaps they created, they were hunted and captured, or starved in the Wastelands, an area outside the city where the air and soil are toxic, and nothing lives or grows.”
COLONEL – “Wastelanders fall in, stand by for video link with Droid council in 3,2,1.”
“Man the stations men, we must conceal our position from the droid army at all costs, the future of humanity depends upon it!”
Verse 1:
In the new age, are you man or machine?
In the new age, don’t get caught in-between
In the new age, something’s bound to go down
New age better beware
In the new age, you get lost in the smog
In the new age, eating trash like a dog
In the new age, is it safe to go out
New age better beware
And so you
Chorus:
Run for your life, stay alive
This is the new age calling
Hide in the night, you must survive
Until the dark has fallen (x2)
This is the New Age, this is the new, new age
MEGANET – “Humans, your resistance is futile. Report immediately for conversion, or you will be annihilated!”
Verse 2:
In the new age (got no food and no cash)
In the new age (all yer stuff turns to trash)
In the new age (things can’t get any worse)
New age better beware
In the new age, no more fauna or trees
In the new age, people getting disease
In the new age, seems like man has been cursed
New age better beware
And so you
[Repeat Chorus]
SPROCKET – “Hello? Hellooo? Is anyone there? All alone again out here in the wastelands, what future is there for an orphan like me?”
Bridge:
What have we done, to this world
What has become, of this life
What have we done, what have we done
(in the new age) What have we done, to this world
(in the new age) What has become, of this life
(in the new age) What have we done, what have we done?
In the new age, you can’t get what you need (what have we done?)
In the new age, seems like nothing’s for free (what has become?)
In the new age, something’s bound to go down (what have we done, what have we done?)
New age better beware
And so you
Run for your life, and stay alive
This is the new age calling
Hide in the night, you must survive
Until the dark has fallen (x2)
This is the New Age, this is the new age, this is the new age
